Suburban living northwest of St. Louis with a convenient location
Incorporated in 1941, the Village of Uplands Park is a small municipality in St. Louis with a population of just over 300 residents. “It’s one of those areas that has a very attractive housing stock — a lot of small to midsize homes with attached garages,” says eXp Realty Realtor Alicia Sierra, who has sold many homes in the area. Plus, despite its size, the neighborhood is not short on amenities. The community’s location along Natural Bridge Road is advantageous, providing easy access to shopping, dining, parks, the University of Missouri–St. Louis, and Interstate 70. Residents are just 10 miles from downtown St. Louis.
Relatively affordable single-family homes and fixer-uppers
House hunters will find block after block of brick homes built in the 1920s in styles like bungalows and Tudor Revivals. Some homes have a one-car garage built into a lower level, but many have driveways that run along the side of the house for parking. Streets are laid out in a grid, with sidewalks and trees on either side. Homes are an average of 1,423 square feet. Fixer-uppers can start as low as $30,000, but a renovated and move-in-ready home can sell for around $100,000.

Shopping and dining within walking distance on Natural Bridge Road
Uplands Park is within walking distance of Beverly Hills Shopping Center, which offers a Dollar General, an auto parts store, and a small supermarket. A larger grocery store, Save A Lot, is just a few blocks down Natural Bridge Road at the North Oaks Plaza. This shopping center offers a bank, a pharmacy, a few apparel stores, and of course, places to grab a bite like Imo’s Pizza, which claims to be the originator of St. Louis style pizza — a thin crust, square cut and Provel cheese.

Heading outdoors in Uplands Park
Uplands Park residents can head to St. Vincent Park to spend some time outdoors. The park offers a playground, walking trails, tennis courts, athletic fields, and even a community center with an outdoor pool and a unique water playground. Glen Echo Country Club is also near the park, which has been a mainstay of the area since its establishment in 1901 — it’s even billed as the oldest continually-running golf course and country club west of the Mississippi. There’s also a roller-skating rink, Skate King, close enough to walk to after school; check the calendar for weekly events like teen night, adult skate and tot skate.

Getting around the greater St. Louis area
According to Sierra, “It’s very hard to live in St. Louis without a car, but if you have a household which doesn’t have a reliable car for every working driving adult, it can be criteria to be closer to commuter arteries or bus lines.” In Uplands Park, the nearest metro station is about a two-mile walk from the center of the neighborhood, but there are multiple bus stops along Natural Bridge Road, the neighborhood’s northern border. Residents are within 7 miles of St. Louis Lambert International Airport. Downtown St. Louis is easy to access via Interstate 70, which is just a mile away.
